Microsoft Expression Blend Q & A

The common things that I have /are faced while designing Windows forms in Expression Blend.

The first problem which I faced was,
You might be expecting some differences in using windows forms between the ones which are designed in expression blend and normal windows form in visual studio. But ABSOLUTELY there is NO difference. The advanteage here is, you can edit your windows using "xaml" which was not possible in VS forms of previous versions. To edit and design in xaml, you can get xaml tool kit from "codeplex.com" to your VSStudio 08 and 05 editions. It is included inherently in VSStudio 2010.

Well, the ONLY difference I found between a windows form designed in blend and a VS form was while you design a window in VS, you can get code behind from any control. For example if you create button in VS windows form, you can write code behind by double clicking it. The same thing is possible with BLEND window as well. But during form load I had an issue. Normally we double click on the form to write code behind in the form_load function. But in designed windows form, that is say windows1.xaml, the double click on the form will not take you to the code behind. For this, you have to write an event for double clicking in blend itself.

Any more such kind of issues please kick them here

Any other kind of scenarios you find please peep in here such that others get to know about Blend much.
